To assist with Kent Hospitality Conference Guests and School Visits to the University a coach park is being installed in Giles Lane Blue Zone car park in the area behind Woolf College from 15 April 2016 to 6 May 2016.

As this is during the vacation period parking should still be available within the central campus car parks however please be aware if these do become full then use the car parks within the Park Wood area, including the parking bays available next to the Park Wood accommodation.

Pedestrian signs within Park Wood Courts, will inform you of the average time required to walk to the main campus. Alternatively, you can use the Park and Ride bus ticket that was sent with your parking permit to travel to and from the main campus.

Please remember that parking enforcement will continue in accordance with the University Regulations for the Management of Traffic.

Enrolment Management Services will be holding an Applicant Day on 6 April 2016 at the Canterbury campus. These are essential recruitment events for the University.

To assist with this event 189 parking bays will be closed in Giles Lane blue zone car park.

All car parks in the centre of campus may be full before 09.00, which could mean you need to use the car parks within the Park Wood area. There are parking bays available next to the Park Wood accommodation as well. We recommend that you consider allowing for the additional time that may be required to travel to and from Park Wood.
